网络分析方法在网络教育中的应用研究综述

A Review of the Application of Network Analysis Method in Online Education

互联网作为新的信息空间让学习过程变成了一个复杂的网络现象,网络教育呈现出复杂网络的特点。传统的、线性的理论和方法解释不了复杂现象背后教与学的规律,亟待新的研究方法。网络分析方法可以揭示隐藏在复杂系统背后的网络模式,呈现个体以及个体之间在整个网络之中空间上与时间上的变化趋势,使得从网络分析视角探究复杂的网络学习过程背后的规律成为可能。研究选取我国2000-2018年发表的121篇文献作为样本数据,从构建不同类型网络、研究设计分析、研究主题分析等多个维度对使用网络分析方法探究网络教育问题的研究进行了系统分析。最后针对目前网络分析方法在网络教育应用中存在的问题提出了建议,为今后相关研究提供方法层面的借鉴。

Internet as a new information space has made the learning process into a complex network phenomenon.Online education presents the characteristics of a complex network.Traditional and linear theories and methods cannot explain the laws of teaching and learning behind complex phenomenon.Therefore,new research method is urgently needed.Network analysis method can reveal the network model hidden behind complex systems,present individual and inter-individual spatial and temporal changes in the entire network,make it possible to explore the laws behind complex network learning processes from the perspective of network analysis.In this study,121 domestic papers published from 2000 to 2018 as sample data to illustrate online education questions using network analysis from multiple aspects such as constructing different types of networks,research design analysis,and research topic analysis.Finally,some suggestions are put forward for the current problems in the application of network analysis method in online education,and a methodological reference for the future relational researches is provided.
